LibriVox recording of William Tell Told Again, by P. G. Wodehouse. Read by Mark F. Smith.
This is the classic story of William Tell - Swiss patriot and great apple-shooter - as seen through the eyes of English humorist P.G. Wodehouse. No Swiss were (permanently) injured in the telling of this story; however, results differed for Austrian tyrants. The original volume also included a humorous poem encapsulating the whole Tell legend, written by John W. Houghton to accompany the sixteen color illustrations. For this audiobook, the stanzas have been collected and read as a single poem. (Introduction by Mark F. Smith)
For further information, including links to online text, reader information, RSS feeds, CD cover or other formats (if available), please go to the LibriVox catalog page for this recording.

Energetically read by Mark Smith, who is one of Libravox's best readers.
Wodehouse retells the story of William Tell, with the typical dry wit and humor that is his signature. It is a pretty short story, but well worth it. Enjoy!
